TAKEN FROM LIFE.
Why There viii Probably Be No Tol1-Roads
in Five Years More.


"You may say my authority that there
won't be a toll-road in Marion county in FIVE
years." said John Clinton, clerk of the board of
commissioners, yesterday
'Wnyr
Simply because they are becoming unproft-
able. and being turned over TO the county,
aud then they, of course become free roads"
Are they being abandoned rap,diy7'
Yes; almost one a month. To-day the lions
vile and Pike-township road was accepted by
commissioners. and from now on will be free
pike. Every time tollroad is made free it
makes it more difficult for the remaining toll
roads to lire. Wherever it is possible patron
ize free road it of course is patronzed. aud
the road that charges for its is avoided"
The farmers like the new movement Of
course"
Certainly. A few years ago farmer couldn't
get into the city without paying for it, and the
toll was so high that often it was cheaper for
him to patronze his country merchant. Now
he car get into the city from almost any direc
ton without striking toll-gate. and he conse-
quently comes that much ottener. There is
question about the toll-gate being relic that
will have to CO."

Haven't Been Taught Their Country's History.
A few days ago couple of school-boys. each
about sixteen years of age, stopped in front of a
picture store. In the window painting of
Libby prison. One of the boys was heard to
say TO the other, as he read the inscription be-
meath the scene:
Libby prisonl Where is Libbyl 1 never
heard of it before"
The other boy was equally as ignorant but a
gentleman standing near volunteered the in
formation that it was in Richmond.
20. yes; Richmond Ind. know where that
is" said the boy, and the gentleman had to ex-
plain tina. there was another Richmond, and
that it was in Virginia.
In this connection like incident may be men,
toned. young lady, aged eighteen, who stood
near the head of her class graduation day,
recently wanted to know which side of the
war General Sherman fought, the North or
South. The young lady speaks German pass
ably well, but it is evident that both she and the
boys spoken of above sadly deficient in
American history.

Little Things That Attract Crowds.

The inclination of people to assemble in a
crowd on the slightest . revocation is often
noted. Reporters perhaps observe this trait
more than any other class of people. It is not
uncommon to see hundred people stop aud
block the sidewalk to watch a man hang a
sign. The sight of man arranging a show
window will always stop many of the passers-
by, and make the sidewalk impossible. Last
Sunday was beautiful day. and from morning
until night not less than one thousand people
stood above the unfinished tunnel on South IL
linois Street and watched the workmen put the
iron-work together. Yes we are bothered to
death with loafers,' said one contractor yes
terday. ''They get in our way, and frequently
are fresh enough to offer suggestions, as to
how piece of work should be done Consider
ing the inclination of Americans go whore
they have business, often wonder that
moro accidents do not happen"

THE CASE OF MIR. ROYALL.
The Court Instructs the Jury to Find Him
Guilty,


The case of Mr.. William L. Royal. who
was indicted for intimidating- tie grand
jury came up for trial in the Hastings
Court yesterday Mr.. S. B. Witt repre-
sented the Commonwealth, and Messrs.
w. II. Sands and S. ID. Davies appeared
as counsel for Mr.. Royall.
Mr.. Royal filed special plea contain
ing summary of the facts upon which
the defence relied as justification of Mr..
Royals course in proceeding against the
grand jury which was rejected. They
then filed plea to the jurisdiction. A
jury was empanelled and the case was ar
gued upon an agreed statement of facts.
The Court instructs the jury that if
they believe from all the evidence in the
case that the suits were brought and the
newspaper publications were made for the
purpose of intimidating and impeding the
grand jury of the February term of this
court from proceeding against the ac-
cused, then they must find the defendant
guilty and the jury are further instruct
ed, in arriving at their verdict, that in
law every man is presumed to intend the
natural and probable consequences of his
own acts.
The jury retired to their room and
after an absence of about twenty minutes
returned with verdict of guilty, and as
sessed his fine at $3.50
The defence moved to set aside the yer.
dict, which motion was overruled
Mr. Royal refused to pay the fine and
was committed to Jail.
